I`ll email them all to Gary and you can do what you want with them ;)

They were taken with an iphone 4 so i think there only 5mp?.. should be ok though
 
Got them thanks very much and having a play edit on the iPad. Got the oranges and reds enhanced on the sunset which looks quite nice.

Are the front lenses on the lights smoked/tinted or is it just the light on the photos?
 
I'd love to see them once you've had a Play around with them..
Yes the front lights have been covered in a black film that has thousands of small holes in it to give a tinted effect.. Was done by previous owner
 
I'll send em over to you to see what you think. I'll have to look up that film as it might look nice on the black car too.

One of my front side lights is cracked a little bit so debating if I should go with black ones and side repeaters. Do they reduce the light emitted much? I'm a bit wary of them after seeing similar on novas etc and you hardly get any light out of them.
 
New refurbed gill badges supplyed from Offyourmarks ;)

Superb job Matt has made, they look good as new

Also after having the side badges referbed i decided to get a new rear badge so i bought an original Bmw badge.
I went for the S54 badge as i prefer the shape B-)

Had to scroll back to the first page of this thread for a comparison, but I agree with you Liam. The rears look much nicer :-bd but depends on what looks best with the dark boot lid (assuming you are still doing that?!)

I know.. im now undecided ~x(

Edit: I also removed the tinting film from the front lights... and wow... i can now see at night!! :-bd
 
Looks good as usual Liam B-)

I like both sets of lights but as you have de-tinted the fronts it will match up with the rears being standard as well. Are you going back to original sidelights and indicators so they are standard all round?

If your still getting the rear panel sprayed the tinted lights would look better though :coolsteer)
 
I do like the original lights not the dark ones, it looks good now getting to look like the hornel one :))
 
Agreed with the above, I prefer the standard lights, the tinted ones don't offend me but they are quite lairy/aggressive. I think if you take off the tint on the fronts/indicators/markers it will look a bit odd keeping them on
 
great pic mate ;)
